OHIP Consultations and Visits Code — CONSULTATIONS AND VISITS · Schedule of Benefits
Family psychotherapy is a form of treatment for mental illness, behavioural maladaptations, and/or other problems that are assumed to be of an emotional nature. It is rendered to an in-patient in the presence of one or more members of the patient's household. The physician deliberately establishes a professional relationship with the patient with the purpose of removing, modifying or retarding existing symptoms, or attenuating or reversing disturbed patterns of behaviour, and of promoting positive personality growth and development. The service is claimed against the patient's health number and diagnosis.
The physician must record on the patient's permanent medical record or chart the time when the insured service started and ended. If the patient's permanent medical record or chart does not include this required information, the service is not eligible for payment.
